Surgery for Sweaty Hands

At Neumark Surgery, our expert doctors and plastic surgeons specialize in providing innovative surgical solutions to a wide range of medical conditions. One such condition is excessive sweating of the hands, also known as palmar hyperhidrosis. Our dedicated team of medical professionals ensures that patients receive the best possible care and achieve desirable outcomes.

Understanding Sweaty Hands

Sweaty hands, or palmar hyperhidrosis, is a condition characterized by excessive sweating of the palms. Although sweating is a natural process to regulate body temperature, individuals with palmar hyperhidrosis experience hands that are persistently wet, making daily tasks uncomfortable and challenging.

While the exact cause of sweaty hands is still under investigation, it is believed to be linked to an overactive sympathetic nervous system. The condition often starts during childhood or adolescence and can significantly impact an individual's quality of life, affecting personal relationships, work productivity, and self-confidence.

Non-Surgical Treatments

Before considering surgical options, our doctors thoroughly evaluate each patient's condition and recommend conservative treatments. These non-surgical alternatives range from over-the-counter antiperspirants to prescription-strength medications that target excessive sweating.

Additionally, innovative treatments such as iontophoresis, which involves passing a mild electrical current through the skin, or botulinum toxin injections can be used to reduce excessive sweating. However, these treatments often provide only temporary relief and may require repeated sessions.

Surgical Intervention for Sweaty Hands

For individuals who have exhausted non-surgical options or require a more long-term solution, surgical intervention can be the key to resolving sweaty hands. Neumark Surgery offers advanced surgical procedures to address palmar hyperhidrosis, providing lasting results and improved quality of life.

One common surgical technique is called endoscopic thoracic sympathectomy (ETS). This minimally invasive procedure targets the sympathetic nerves responsible for excessive sweating. The surgeon makes small incisions on the side of the chest and inserts a tiny camera to guide the process. By interrupting the nerve signals that trigger sweating, ETS effectively reduces or eliminates excessive sweating in the hands.

It is important to note that ETS is a specialized procedure and should only be conducted by experienced surgeons in a well-equipped medical center. At Neumark Surgery, our plastic surgeons possess the necessary expertise and utilize state-of-the-art equipment to ensure optimal patient outcomes.
